| You know, I think it's pretty amusing how you never actually refute any of our points except to rant that PK and ESP exist. You see, there are three parts to an argument, the claim, the warrant, and the impact. I'll diagram one of my arguments from above with this in mind to show you. My claim: "The only evidence that you provided for PK being real is this one person's site. His site fails to prove that PK exists." That's a claim. It has no backing; that's what the warrants are for. My warrants: (1) It is easy to show the first part of the statement to be true simply by looking at your above comments. (2) The "test" image is not fully describe in function, so there is no measurable way to record and analyze the data. (3) He shows no record of the recorded data from this image, so there is no way to reference it. (4) Just saying that one person has had the "right" answer ten times in a row proves nothing as statistics show that this should happen at least once a week. You see, all of those back up my previous claim. Now the impact. This is what the claim being true means. What's the impact of this? Quite simply, PK doesn't exists, as the only piece of real evidence you've put forward has been debunked. Now for your arguments. All you have is a claim. No backing to that claim, and no impact of what it means. I'll say this again: ''every major scientific test has shown PK and ESP to be false. In the few that initially showed that it might be real, further testing revealed that the anomalies were due to chance, not to anything supernatural.'' I hope that clears everything up.

| :Oh, and on the topic of antigravity, there's a good example that shows how your argument fails. You see, liquid nitrogen can be used to supercool magnets such that they will float above another magnetic source. The magnet is free to spin about its axis and is only subject to air resistance. How is this important. Well two reasons. First, ''there is documented evidence of it''. Look it up, or if you're lazy, just follow [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PgWSWg-J3sg this link]. Second, and probably more importantly, when this happened, the secientific community didn't go ZOMG LIQID NITROGN CAUSEZ ANITGRABIY, they looked for what might actually be causing it. What did they find? That at certain temperatures, magnetic forces override the force of gravity. No, gravity does not cease to exists, it is just compensated for by another force. (I know this is a gross over simplification of the process, but it should suffice to show the method). Now, your asking how this fits this discussion? Well I'm glad you asked. You see, all that happening with the PK argument is that an undocumented event is being used to make a claim with no backing except that the undocumented event occurred, thereby proving it. Even if the event was documented, this is still circular logic.

| Wait, if PK were real, and the programmers believed in it, why would Ness and Lucas' final smashes need to be rigged to respond to PK if PK can control and influence events?[[User:Y462|Y462]] <small>([[User talk:Y462|T]] • [[Special:Contributions/Y462|C]] • [[Special:Editcount/Y462|E]] )</small> 02:38, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

| :If PK were real (I'm going to try to remain completely neutral in this debate, so as not to offend anyone), people would be able to move (kinesis) objects with their mind (psycho). However, game code, which is fundamentally binary, is not a solid object, and therefore cannot be "moved" as, say, one of those spoons you might try and bend if you were a bored "PKer." There would be no way for the programmers to rig the game, as the Nintendo Wii has (would have?) no way of detecting psychokinetic energy. There's no programming language out there that says "IF: PK detected THEN: pwn with Starstorm ELSE: fail at life" because (besides the obvious high unlikeliness of its existence) machines have no way of detecting a force that does not emit a wavelength. By the way, is there some way to re-name this forum, cuz we're not talking about Meta Knight anymore.--[[User:Meta-K|Meta-Kirb]] ([[User talk:Meta-K|talk]]) 03:03, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

| You know, I got bored today and actually went and tried Ness's Final Smash to see what happens. Guess what? It's a pattern. No random number generators, no homing missiles, no PK, no dolphin energy fields. So, you can't influence it with PK, which incidentally doesn't exist.

| As much as I enjoyed the PK argument (I'm not being sarcastic), I'd like to take a moment to go back to the original point of this thread. You see, Meta Knight's tech roll isn't even that bad. It still moves him far enough in a direction that a tech-chase still requires some guessing. And let's say you guess right. Meta Knight can still use his down-smash, up special, or any other of his almost limitless moves that have no lag and high priority. You show me the videos of you (or any player for that matter) beating M2K with ZSS or the ICs using this tech chase roll whatchamacallit, then I'll think that maybe Meta Knight is vulnerable to this.
